can a child set up apple id

I am getting an error message after the birthdate prompt when creating an apple id on my teens new iphone. IS there an age limit to getting an apple id?

I assume you dont have to be an adult to get one!

Help!!

Thanks!

If the child is under 13 years old, you have to set up Family Sharing to create an Apple ID for them. If 13 years old or older, what is the exact error message you are seeing?
